Description

First light for my new W.O. Redcat 61.  I used my Sony A7Riv full frame mirrorless camera (not modified or cooled) instead of the ASI2600MM so I could capture a wider field and do it two half nights.  This target didn't come up until after midnight.  Noise didn't turn out to be a problem.  I kept the exposures short (120") so Antares didn't saturate.  Thanks for looking.
